About the piece
In this evocative 1881 work by Arnold Böcklin, the goddess Diana is depicted in a moment of vulnerability, sleeping soundly on a dark rocky outcrop. Two fauns, rendered with earthy, rustic textures, peer over the ledge with expressions of wonder and curiosity. The scene is set against a moody, cloud-heavy landscape that heightens the tension between the mythological and the natural world, characteristic of Böcklin's unique Symbolist style.
